Despoiler

Description

Level 3 - Persistent Plague

You gain the Passive Effect "Afflictions free on No Effect or Miss". If an Affliction you use fails to affect your target for any reason, it does not expend a Spirit. This does not count if an Affliction affects a target and is later removed by Cure.

Level 5 - Scourge

You gain the effect "Scourge".

Level 9 - Rot

When you use healing to subdue a player or creature that is Afflicted by Scourge, the next Affliction you use is Free.

Level 13 - Plague Spores

You may add the "Retort" delivery method to all of your Offensive actions for 1 Spirit.

Level 17 Heroic Action - Leeching Spores

Useable once per game shift. Once activated, any time you deliver damage with Retort, you heal yourself for 2 hits for Free. This lasts until the end of the scene it is activated during. You may extend its use to the next scene by reducing your maximum Hits by half rounded down with a minimum of 1 Hit until you reach 1 Hit maximum, at which point it may no longer be extended. This health cap is only removed at the end of the content you are on.

Appendix:

Scourge - 

While Afflicted by Scourge, you are damaged instead of healed when receiving healing effects. This is removed with Cure or by being reduced to 0 Hits.

Retort - 

You activate Retort by being hit, similar to Avenging. When you deliver an Effect with "Retort", the target automatically takes the effect if they cannot Counter it or are not otherwise Immune to it. It may not be avoided or mitigated by any other means, such as Dodge, Deflect, Withstand, Resist, or Absorb.
